If only my house was immaculate, I could lose those last few pounds, we could buy a house, own this or that, and the list goes on. I know that I struggle with what society tells me will make me happy versus what God has in mind. I think that it is easy for moms to get bogged down as we go through our daily routine. We want so much for our children in a world that is upside down. It has always been upside down, although, we seem to think that it wasn't always this way, when in fact, it has been since the Fall. I struggle with trust. Intellectually I know that God has always carried me, but in the midst of the storm it is hard to remember. I am trying to learn to channel my St. Peter and walk out on the water. I will pray for strength as you weather this storm and for blessings on your family. Have a very blessed week!Constancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06654427285814476193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039084287472642442.post-46716713848352356502012-07-18T17:17:06.027-07:002012-07-18T17:17:06.027-07:00Susan, I think you need a vacation...go north mayb...Susan, I think you need a vacation...go north maybe Canada where it is COLD. I am with you on the fight to keep all things in prospective. I am reading a book and I cant exactly quote it but it's from Interior Freedom by Jacques Philippe and a chapter about faith hope and love. Many say Charity is the greatest of the three virtues, but in practice Hope is the most important, as long as hope remains love develops....yet hope needs faith from which it gets its energy....all so needed.
